A sequel to the 1976 remake of ''[[Film/KingKong1976 King Kong]]'', released in 1986. It was directed by John Guillermin and produced by Creator/DinoDeLaurentiis.

Despite being riddled with bullets and falling over 1,000 feet from the World Trade Center, Kong survived, but now resides in a coma. Thanks to the efforts of Dr. Franklin (Linda Hamilton), it is restored with an artificial heart and a blood transfusion from a female Kong, recently discovered by adventurer Hank Mitchell (Brian Kerwin).

Kong and the female Kong are immediately drawn to each other when the former wakes up, and break away from their keepers to the wild. The U.S. Army, led by Lt. Col. R.T. Nevitt (John Ashton), is then sent to capture them.

There was also two Japan-only {{licensed game}}s based on it, both released by Creator/{{Konami}}.
